All My Love

Complete Switzer Show
Zurich
29/6/80
(1980)

A show from the June 29th that was part of the In Through The Out Door European tour. This gig in Switzerland at the Hallenstadion, Zürich is generally considered as one of their best performances for this tour. Unfortunately (unlike the name says) it is not complete since Kashmir fades out. Anyway it's the mighty Zep and just a couple of months before they disband.

One of the best shows from the 1980 tour, this show has a great version of Heartbreaker and The Train Kept a Rollin'. Jimmy flashes between inspired playing and getting his fingers caught in the strings. The rest of the group play well and seem to be having fun, although they totally botch Kashmir. That caused Plant to commented it: "If anybody's bootlegging that, you'll have to scratch that number cause wasn't completely correct - somehow we got through it." Robert's voice is in great shape.

Remember it well. As I get older, I realize how lucky I am to have seen Led Zep with John Bonham. Robert Plant was in fine form that night. Very talkative.

01 - Train Kept A Rollin'
02 - Nobody's Fault But Mine
03 - Black Dog
04 - In The Evening
05 - The Rain Song
06 - Hot Dog
07 - All My Love
08 - Trampled Underfoot
09 - Since I've Been Loving You
10 - Achilles Last Stand Disc
11 - White Summer - Black Mountain Side
12 - Kashmir (fades out)
13 - Stairway To Heaven
14 - Rock And Roll
15 - Heartbreaker

Robert Plant and John Paul Jones wrote this. The band had drifted apart, with guitarist Jimmy Page and drummer John Bonham hanging out together and rarely showing up on time for recording sessions. As a result, many of the songs on In Through The Out Door were put together by Plant and Jones, with Page and Bonham adding their parts late at night.

This song is not a love song in the traditional sense, rather a tribute to Robert Plant's son Karac, who died of a stomach infection in 1977 when he was 5.

Plant did the vocals in one take.

This was only played live during Led Zeppelin's 1980 tour of Germany.

Hey Conney, what concert in 1980 do you think is the best concert Zeppelin played? My gut tells me the Frankfurt gig is the absolute best but I haven't listened to all the gigs. What do you figure?

[Conneyfogle]

@RockerForLife74 I'd say maybe this one from Zurich

[RockerForLife74]

@Conneyfogle How was the Bremen concert in your opinion? I heard it wasn't that great. That and Led Zeppelin's last performance in Berlin was a bit off. I heard Stairway to Heaven from the Berlin concert, longest Stairway solo but probably the worst one too.

[Conneyfogle]

@RockerForLife74 Bremen is ok, I'm not a big fan of the 80's gigs, but at least they are all soundboards which makes them worth having I guess

I have a copy of this show on cd.

It is from a sound board pressing I am told.

[Conneyfogle]

@LZFAN2009 yeah, nearly all the 80's gigs are

[U2Madrid]

Awesome! That guitar... so fucking brilliant.

Thanks for this amazing version.

Only heard it a few times, that's why I especially appreciate it. If there is any great history to it, kindly let us know. Thanks again.

Without a doubt one of the best "live" performances of "All My Love" in the history of Led Zeppelin. Of course, only being originally released only one year earlier in 1979, Robert and the band were still in good form. Unfortunately, his voice hasn't stayed fully with him in his elder years, although I have seen recent performances where he actually has been in very good vocal form. Nothing of this caliber though. Fantastic performance.

@Conneyfogle Bremen was good as well. ;)

@bkarmgb18 Kah Rahk with a mildly rolled "r". Pen Dragon just like so.

[Evster2012]

@MrKenzoh1 Rather presumptuous to assume what Jimmy Page was feeling when his band fell apart around him isn't it? Robert's distress. The possibility it would never happen again for the group. Maybe the fact that he'd slid into the slippery slope of smack made him feel it would be disrespectful to attend Karac's burial while doped. We'll never know. I'm just proiding a different angle.

@RockerForLife74 Any of the LA shows from '77 are great, April 27th, and 28th are awesome, 30th is good too if you can get past the quality of the recording,Most of the shows in Madison Square Garden are tops as well. I'm sure Tampa would've been good if it hadn't gotten canceled three numbers in. Also the Landover shows are a solid A to A-.

[MrKenzoh1]

Jimmy Page seems like such an asshole! He didn't go to Karacs funeral. That is just so...

[pjsbulldog67]

thanks for this upload,much appreciated!

[bkarmgb18]

Does anyone know how to pronounce Robert's deceased son's name: Karac Pendragon...?

[RockerForLife74]

@Conneyfogle How about 1977? That was Zeppelin's dark year for sure since most of the performances I've heard we're not too good. I heard the Houston concert you put up, it was ok. Lots of mess ups for sure though. What would you say is the best '77 concert, where everyone is in the best shape for that year? I'm thinking Landover, but you know best :) Thanks.
